Global Markets

Bottom up/Top Down

Capitalize on fast-moving Markets.

The Global Markets Division identifies market trends and mispricings through the analysis of macroeconomic and fundamental data, monetary policies of central banks, political events and their consequences for the world economy.

The division formulates macroeconomic outlooks and enters into short-to-medium-term trades leveraging their own research. They utilize instruments of all asset classes to express directional or delta-neutral bets across major markets.
